Photobiomodulation at Swiss Derma Clinic in Zurich
Renophase works through photobiomodulation. What does that mean? The near-infrared light used in light therapy is absorbed by skin cells. This boosts repair processes, increases the skin’s microcirculation, and enhances ATP production within the cells.
What makes Renophase treatments different
Activation with red light
Your skin is illuminated with near-infrared/red light. This light encourages cells to produce more energy and renew themselves from within. At the same time, the active ingredients can unfold their full effect.
A dual approach
The combination of biomimetic actives and red light can visibly improve the complexion. Skin becomes stronger, more even, and more resilient.
Which skin concerns do we treat with Renophase?
We treat you in our Zurich practice using validated protocols tailored to your current skin condition. Examples include:
-
Pigmentation and melasma: for a more even complexion.
-
Acne: calms inflammation, clears the skin, and refines texture.
-
Rosacea and sensitive skin: reduces redness and inflammation and strengthens the skin barrier.
-
Well-Aging (younger skin): maintenance care to help prevent early signs of ageing.
-
Anti-Aging (mature skin): improves firmness, softens lines, and supports rejuvenation.
Your treatment in Zurich
A course of sessions
We recommend at least 4 sessions, spaced a few weeks apart—typically around 3 weeks. Afterwards, longer intervals are usually sufficient for maintenance. The exact schedule depends on your skin and will be discussed with you at our clinic in Zurich.
In-clinic steps
Cleansing, infusion of active ingredients, LED/red-light exposure, and additional skincare steps. Each session lasts 30–60 minutes.
Combination options
Depending on your skin, we can combine Renophase with microneedling, IPL, or laser.
How does red-light therapy work?
Red light provides an energy boost for skin cells by acting on the cells’ “powerhouses,” the mitochondria. They produce more ATP—and thus more energy. As a result, skin cells can:
-
Repair micro-damage more quickly
-
Produce more collagen and elastin
-
Regulate inflammation
-
Improve skin microcirculation
In short: red light gives your skin more energy for regeneration and rejuvenation.
